Shadow Conspiracy – Jono Hopping “Controlled Chaos”

Leave a Comment

As you should know by now, Jono Hopping absolutely SHREDS on a BMX bike. The Shadow Conspiracy just dropped this BANGER of a video featuring Jono absolutely obliterating spots galore from rails and heavy drops to gaps, wall rides and much, much more. This is an absolute MUST SEE of a BMX video, so hit play and take this all in!

“New Zealand’s Jono Hopping is no stranger to burly moves and wild style. His latest video has no shortage of either and all while having a huge smile on his face.

Jono travels to a mix of locations and has been working on this video for a couple years now. We proudly present to you the finished product and with the perfect title, “Controlled Chaos.”

Subrosa In Color

Leave a Comment

Subrosa’s old filmer, Bobby Kanode, decided to release a video that might not have ever seen the light of day…

Anyone who has taken filming BMX serious has always dreamed of being paid to film for a brand or a video project. Bobby Kanode spent 3 years as the team filmer for Subrosa, which meant he spent his days traveling all over the place with the team filming for web videos, full-length videos and more. During his time he stacked a lot of clips, some were used, others weren’t and were just sitting on his hard drive waiting to be seen. The time has finally come, because Bobby has gone through and edited the clips into this full-length video that’s loaded with pure gold featuring their team riders, past and present, during that time frame. When Subrosa first started out, they did a lot of their projects in black and white, so that’s where the title comes from. Get the full story from Bobby below!

“From 2013 to 2016 I had the opportunity of a lifetime to be the filmer for Subrosa Brand. When it was all over I was left with a hard drive full of good times, and last year I chopped this video up to “clean out my closet.” I can’t say enough good things about all the boys, and I had the time of my life. This is kind of the DVD that never happened. Big thank you to Ronnie Bonner and Ryan Sher for having me for those years, and bigger shout out to the best team in BMX.

We’ve got a lot of recycled clips in here but they’re in color now, as well as brand new (yet still old) never seen section from Johnny (no longer on Subrosa) and a stacked friends section. Pretty hyped!

Love you guys, enjoy.

Shadow Conspiracy X Subrosa World Tour – Colorado

Leave a Comment

The Shadow Conspiracy and Subrosa World Tour continues! This time the crew made their way to Colorado to visit Pusher BMX and a few other shops to have parking lot sessions and pizza parties! Check out what went down!

“The Shadow Conspiracy/ Subrosa World Tour has hit tons of states across the U.S. and has ventured many countries across Europe. On this leg the boys hit a bunch of shops and spots around the Denver area.

With the help of QBP this trip we gathered up Shadow/ Subrosa riders Lahsaan Kobza, Matt Ray, Kyle Hart, Jono Hopping, and Johnny Atencio and hit the road!

The guys met a bunch of awesome riders and fans, and visited 3 shops including Pusher BMX, Rideco Bike Shop, and The Fix Bike Shop.

We ran into some bad weather, at a few shops, so this video is from our session at Pusher!

Thanks to QBP, Pusher, Rideco, The Fix, and all the riders who came out and showed us some love!

Subrosa – Jono Hopping Battle Fork II Promo

Leave a Comment

Subrosa coming through with a fresh BMX video featuring Jono Hopping crushing spots in America and New Zeland promoting the new Battle Fork II. As expected from Jono, he slays every rail he could get his pegs on and jumps some big gaps. You’ll definitely want to hit play on this!

“Jono Hopping went in for his latest edit to promote the new Subrosa Battle Fork II’s!

This one was filmed around the world from his home in New Zealand to the U.S. and Jono finds some amazing spots and slays them all!

The over pegs with the HUGE drop is insane!

I love Jono’s style, his outlook on riding, and the fact he simply just has a good ass time on his bike riding anything!

Melbourne Zoo BMX – Jono Hopping & Matt Allpress Indoor Zoo

Leave a Comment

Check out some footage of Jono Hopping and Matt Allpress putting in some work on a few flat rails and ledges during a rainy day session during a visit to Melbourne! Despite it being a pretty limited setup, these guys had no problem stacking some clips!

“The kiwi homies Jono Hopping and Matt Allpress came to visit Melbourne for a few days last year during winter but the weather turned out to be pretty shitty.
We went to ride the DIY indoor spot one of the days and got a few clips there. We were not gonna do anything with them but these clips are better online than to be sitting on my computer” – Melbourne Zoo BMX
